quarters when the Federal army made
their grand entry into Vicksburg. They
were q good way off when we first heard
their drums as they sounded the tum-
tum, and every ear was turned to the
quarter from whence this came to make
out what they were playing. Various
guesses were offered in that direction, but
were all given up, one by one, as the wind
lulled or shifted and the sounds got so
terribly mixed up that not the most perfect
master Of music could say for certainty
that they expressed any tune at all. At
last somebody exclaimed: "Why, that is

myself out on the sidewalk, and felt ut
tlrst pretty sure Of my bundle, but on
second thought felt somewhat doubtful
They all assured me it would be found,
and yet-well, l began to feel very doubt
full.
The next day went home. waited a
month for an answer to my letter to my
sister. But when l did receive q letter
from her it was not an answer to mine,
which had evidently not reached her, as
she only spoke of the receipt of letter of
date some two weeks previous.
To mike q long story short, l may say
that naver got an answer to my letter to
my sister. She was travelling about, and
her letters were short, and only full of
daily experiences. But 1t seemed exceed
ingly strange to me that she made no al
fusion at all to the letter about the bun
die. In each of my letters to her spoke
of my letter and ssked her to tell me
about it; what was in it? was she sure Of
her address? etc.
Finally, feeling sure that that particu-
lar and most important letter had been
lost, / wrote duplicate of it, as nearly as
/ could, and sent it off. In the meantime
| had received two letters: one from the
Adams Express company, in which they
said that they could find no trace Of the
lost bundle, and also that no receipt could
be found for it either in their books or in
the Hotel Brunswick.
l received also letter from the Hotel
Brunswick.
II was Of tho same tenor; they had no
record; they regretted extremely the loss
and annoyance to me and to Mr.. Haven.
They stated explicitly that no suspicion
could be attached to the clerk who had
left them, and regretted that they were
unable TO give me his address.

FALLS VILLAGE,

Mir and Mrs U. H. Miner went to Saratoga last week for few days recreation. .. Rev MT Moore has gone to Saratoga for few days and from
 there will go to the home of his wife's parents at Stamford. Wm Hart was severely injured last week by pile of lumber falling on him. He is still un- able to get out doors .. Something unusual for this latitude occurred at the shops on the 7th, that of little sport snowballing. Where the cinder was thrown in the winter on being removed was found a quantity of snow, which was covered to such depth that the rays of the sun did not penetrate or affect it. A school meeting was held at the Beebe hill school-house Saturday night and committee appointed to see about making some needed repairs during vacation .. Frank Reed has made many improvements on h1s house and all the outbuildings on the place, such as changing partitions in the last named, new silling and moving the stables, while in the interior of the house the change has been complete all through, having been painted and

The Stevens House at Norfolk has

The Stevens House at Norfolk has been newly painted and renovated from cellar to attic. The barn on the premi- ses has been enlarged and six box-stalls and 19 other stalls added, thus making it one of the finest barns in the state. Over $1 ,60O have been expended in improvements on the hotel property. The house will comfortably accommo- date 75 guests, yet MT B. 0. Stevens, the genial, honest and square dealing landlord, does not claim to have receiv- ed twice as many applications as he can accommodate, but he has plenty of large and pleasant rooms to let to desirable parties. MT Stevens IS liberal provi- der, sets an excellent table and is 8 popular landlord.
 Regarding the "skientifc" or bal loon expedition from St Louis the situ- ation may be summed up at this writ ing as follows |: No ascension has yet been made the atmosphere is "Hazen;" "Moore" eastern current is waited for i; the faces of the sky voyagers are Doughty ;" "White" ivered are many who predict disastrous trip, but the "World" is confident of success, and it's "Pulitzer" steady and strong, beats regularly and is only waiting for "Day" to give the signal for the up- ward flight over the "Brooks" and "Green" to New England not in 8 jify, but with Duffy" The children held the fort at the Methodist church last Sunday evening. The programme prepared for the board of education of the M. B. church was carried out, including an address to the children, by the pastor. The floral dis play, while not so extensive as last year, was richer and more elegant, and the effect was more pleasing. From the chandeliers were suspended floral wreath and Maltese cross. In the niche behind the pulpit star was suspended from cross fanked on either side by 8 crown, while each side of the nich were ancors, all made from white flowers. The pulpit was nearly hidden beneath 8 large cross made of white peonies stand ing in 8 bank of red peonies, fanked by beautiful boquets. Tie chancel rail was wound with evergreens, syringa bloss- cms, and red roses, while harp of daises stood at the end of the rail. In front of the rail pyramid of daises rested on table. Large and beautiful boquets and potted plants stood on the railing in front of the choir. The children all acquitted themselves very nicely.

We had the pleasure of listening to the Rev Dr Eddy on Sunday last. He spoke from the text "What does God require of thee?"
